Sebastian Tan

I currently run Formenos, a $25M AI-Native L/S Equity Hedge Fund. We’re backed by the first investors in Cognition and Etched.

In middle school, I loved building computers. I turned one of them into an Ethereum mine in my basement and almost blew up our house.

In high school, I built an employment algorithm for people with criminal records and was the youngest member of the U.S. National Economics Team.

After high school, I took a gap year from Stanford to work at Palantir in New York. I originally grew up in Pittsburgh and I live in San Francisco today.

I love hiking, running, and anything outdoors or with friends. Before I die, I wanna learn how to sail and visit every country in the world.
